Tennis has the Hawkeye system, hockey tried out that weird streaking puck display, and now golf is going high-tech, too. The Golf Channel is going to start using the TrackMan Tour System, a radar technology that measures golfer's swings and the flight of the ball, for certain tour events.
Trackman records the golfer's swing motion in 3D space, then tracks the launch, flight and spin of the ball with unprecedented precision. The USGA used it this past summer to track and analyze pros's swings, and now Golf Channel viewers will be able to see virtual replays of certain shots.
The first showing will be at the Mercedes-Benz Championship on December 3rd.—Gregory Mone
this technology is awesome. it really enhances the viewing of a golf tournament

This is great and I am pretty excited on the launch of this one. This is the right time for a level up on this sport. Trackman is great so for the golfers to to know and test their game.

Golf is such a good idea for a getaway. It's relaxing and cities are so good with putting together packages for consumers. I personally enjoy the Myrtle Beach area.
